  1. KeyBank Center seats 19,200 for basketball, more than 15 NBA cities.
  2. I've been to 4 games in the past decade, mostly to give my son the experience. The continued mediocrity of the team and the increased obnoxious behavior by fans tempered my desire to travel 2 1/2 hours both ways. So about $700.
  3. I was overjoyed and grateful when the Pegulas bought the team. But their mistake was not cleaning house and hiring someone with football knowledge to run the organization. Now we are left with the lingering effects of their trusting their own instincts on how to run the team and who to hire, and the same people (Brandon, Whaley) who have contributed to the mediocrity. On the other hand, if Trump had bought the team it may have been regionally painful but saved the nation from the coming s##t storm.
  4. The Bills are planning to interview Ted Marchibroda's hologram.
  5. The Trump impulse for ironic statements flows down party. A county commissioner in Georgia accused Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.) of being "a racist pig" over the weekend after the congressman criticized President-elect Donald Trump. Tommy Hunter, a Republican on the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, wrote two Facebook posts about Lewis and "Demonrats" on Saturday and Sunday, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported. Both appeared to have been deleted as of Monday morning. "John Lewis is a racist pig", Hunter wrote on Saturday, according to a screenshot posted by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. "There aint one political pundit that didnt say on November 9 that this would be Demonrats EXACT response to Trump winning. Like I heard Rush, I believe say, Demonrats DO NOT live in reality. They believe polls were right and THE REAL VOTES were wrong. What a bunch of idiots." http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/georgia-county-commissioner-john-lewis-racist_us_587ceaf6e4b0b3c7a7b2181e
  6. You don't seem to know history, that southern Democrats switched to the Republican party after LBJ signed the Civil Rights Act. But keep pushing the false narrative.
  7. They figured they couldn't compete with the incoming Trump circus.
  8. I'm afraid he's leaning towards keeping him. More years in the QB desert without looking for a better alternative.
  9. Clean your ears, he said his name. The question was meant to see if he would be humble and realistic or a blowhard promise maker.
  10. They're fine, asking tough questions is their job.
  11. Clapper didn't say it was garbage, he called to say the intel community didn't leak the the Russia dossier that he received a brief on as accurately reported by CNN. How deliciously ironic that Trump and his sycophants are crying foul over unsubstantiated information after having spent the campaign believing and retweeting many fake news stories about Clinton. How's it feel to reap what you sowed.
  12. CNN's reporting has been verified as correct. Director of Intelligence James Clapper said in a statement that the summary was included in the briefing documents because "part of our obligation is to ensure that policymakers are provided with the fullest possible picture of any matters that might affect national security." That is what CNN reported, that Trump was given the summary briefing.
  13. Wrong. Director of Intelligence James Clapper said in a statement that the summary was included in the briefing documents because "part of our obligation is to ensure that policymakers are provided with the fullest possible picture of any matters that might affect national security." That is what CNN reported, that Trump was given the summary briefing. Unprecedented, are you for real? As opposed to what's been done to Hillary Clinton for 3 decades.
  14. Trump was factually wrong regarding CNN. They reported that Trump was given a 2 page summary on Russia having potentially embarrassing data in the intelligence briefing. That was before Buzzfeed released the detailed document. CNN never released or talked about said details. What they reported was not fake news, it was simply referring to the 2 page summary that was provided. So Trump was wrong about CNN, his attempt to conflate who did what failed, and he embarrassed himself by again trying to bully the press.
  15. You're factually wrong on CNN. They reported that Trump was given a 2 page summary on Russia having potentially embarrassing data in the intelligence briefing. That was before Buzzfeed released the details. CNN never released or talked about said details. What they reported was not fake news, it was simply referring to the 2 page summary that was provided. So Trump was wrong about CNN, his attempt to conflate who did what failed, and he embarrassed himself by again trying to bully the press. And Kelly Ann Conway later tried and failed on CNN to again conflate the issues. She said Trump never got the 2 page briefing, but then when pressed by Anderson Cooper said she didn't know if he got it because she wasn't there and didn't have clearance to know. CNN stands by the multiple sources they obtained the story from. This is the type of double speak that people not paying attention let Trump and his sycophants get away with. Conflation and pivot to avoid the truth.
  16. He reopened a previously closed investigation, and sent a cryptic letter without details that was ripe for misrepresentation by Clinton's opponents. “I­n connection with an unrelated case, the FBI has learned of the existence of emails that appear to be pertinent to the investigation.” This written without even knowing the contents of said emails. “Given that we don’t know the significance of this newly discovered collection of emails, I don’t want to create a misleading impression." Too late, Comey did it by simply sending the letter. And it then allowed Trump to exploit a false narrative. “Now the evidence is so overwhelming ― because they wouldn’t have done this unless the evidence was overwhelming."
  17. Investigating Weiner's emails and making assumptions that they were related to Clinton before they were actually looked at (and subsequently determined to be irrelevant) was not part of the original investigation. But again, Comey was not obligated to mention them until after they were looked at and conclusions were made. But at least you're now conceding that the House Republicans were behind leaking the unnecessary Comey letter that helped sway voter opinions. Comey should have expected such a letter without explaination would be used by the Republicans.
  18. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.washingtonpost.com/amphtml/world/national-security/justice-officials-warned-fbi-that-comeys-decision-to-update-congress-was-not-consistent-with-department-policy/2016/10/29/cb179254-9de7-11e6-b3c9-f662adaa0048_story.html?client=safari
  19. General Flynn! You're as predictable as the Bills punting in 4th and 1, and just as unimaginative. Comey could have waited until after the election, he was not required to meet a certain deadline. It was his decision to inflame the situation and then not offer an explaination.
  20. Yes, yes, and I assume the non-partisan Secret Service has a say in where a president stays and determines it's security. Obama didn't do a search on Trivago.
  21. Remember Trump said he could shoot someone and they'd still support him. He knew his followers.
  22. It was General Flynn who first tweeted a story from True Pundit that the NYPD had evidence on Clinton. His son later continued the fake news tweet. The intelligence leadership thought the Trump scandal credible enough to show to the govermment leadership. So you consider Putin a childish, thin skinned, narcissist.
